What does segregation in Milwaukee look like? How can we understand it better? The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Urban Studies Programs looks at the impact on the city in a way intended to provoke broader discussion and more action. Come and take a look at an interactive application that should make some of the complex data digestible at the UWM's College of Letters and Science at 3 p.m. Find more information on UWM's event page.

Interested in hearing about what it takes for small businesses to succeed? Consider attending the "Passion, Planning and Persistence: Three Keys to Small Business Success" seminar at Alverno College tonight at 6 p.m. It is free and open to the public. For more information and to register, go to Alverno's forum page.

And as I do each week, let me recommend that you drop by our arts and books editor Jim Higgins' blog to read his weekly musings on John Updike's short stories. That goes up at 8 a.m.
